Just dusted and reorganized the Amber Collection figures I have on display. I have the entirety of the Collection, but it won't be displaying them all until the rest of my collection room is reorganized.

I was sick this week with my son, so to help him feel better, I decided that I would decompile and port over his favorite arcade game ;)

It plays on a huge cinema-sized screen floating in front of you. The right controller is your gun, and it runs at a smooth 72 fps with full sound, attract mode, mission select and everything.

How? The arcade machine is really a Linux PC inside. I translated (Not me, AI. While I am a security professional, deep static decompaction is well past my domain of expertise) the game's original program so it runs directly on the Quest's chip, then rebuilt the graphics, sound and the cabinet's gun hardware around it. No emulator, no PC streaming; it's all on the headset.

I also tried making it full VR, with you inside the jeep and looking around with your head. The game actually has a hidden, unfinished Oculus mode from back then too, which was a fun easter egg to find. But on-rails dino chases with a camera that never stops moving made me pretty seasick, so the giant screen won.

Can you play it? Only if you own the game yourself; I can't share the game or the app. For the technically curious, everything about how it works, plus a build guide for those that have that file ;) ;), is here: https://github.com/Lovecore/jurassic-park-arcade-quest

Here's some great reference photos for the Jurassic Park T. rex animatronic. The final color scheme for the Rex had a fairly complex dappled patterning, which doesn't show up very well in the darkness of the set, or in the grainy old BTS videos.

As the title says, I changed my mouse cursor to a Jurassic Park one. The Image provided is what I used and created but in order for it to be a cursor file, it had to be heavily pixelized.

I'm honestly surprised there aren't many Jurassic Park related mouse cursers out there, the only ones I could find were mostly Jurassic World related, but I really wanted a Jurassic Park one.

What do you all think? I'm fairly proud of it (though might change it in the future) and would love to hear your thoughts on it.

Sorry if my wording is horrible.

I used this site if anybody is interested: Cursor Editor

Edit: No longer need that Cursor Editor website, Just select an image you like, save them as a file and use Convertio — File Converter which can convert simple images into cursor files. How I did this all was following this guys video example. Its a really good video too: How to Customize your Mouse Cursor to ANYTHING | Windows 11 & 10

Sorry to anyone who has a Linux computer, but I'm sure you can find examples for your computer program too.

Someone is trying to get Lego to make the Velociraptor skeleton set he designed to look like Grant's dig site from the movie. I figured there might be some folks here who are interested.

Make of it what you will. Saber has removed the screenshot and listing for JP Survival from the website. Could be a quiet cancellation, could be nothing. Either way, someone from Saber needs to speak up and say something, anything about the game. Even if it is cancelled.

Update
A few hours later they put it back. All traces of the game were indeed gone from the website for a while.

Had to do a double check when I was at dinner with my wife last week. This Longhorn Steakhouse uses a very familiar font to designate the location of its restrooms.

Obviously my wife found this only a little amusing, whereas I was all “I told you!”

I used to follow Ali Awada but now with all the AI stuff coming out I'm done with him.

There's San Diego Incident which I found a while ago, and many other videos but Krenautican that I haven't seen and therefore cannot speak on the quality of.

If you somehow haven't heard of Prehistoric Emergence then now you have. While there was AI used in the beginning, the creator got feedback on it and listened to it and its entirely human made now.

Would love to get more suggestions from others, I know a lot of former fans like myself are in need.

This massive creature is know for hunting carnivore packs at night while they sleep with a high success rate. Gigantadominus does not attack other herbivores (unless provoked) despite it's indomitable ingredients.

I found this copy of Jurassic Park at a thrift store a few years ago and decided to pull it out again. The "Soon to be a motion picture" shows that it was printed before the movie was released.

I'm not looking to resell it and the coloring is extremely yellowed as you can see but I'm wondering if this copy is considered somewhat rare? Most of the modern prints are the anniversary edition.

I think I paid like $2 for this.

As a fan of crocodiles, I say it was an impressive and intimidating design. What makes this creature a step up to the T-Rex is its massive arms that as shown in the film, throws around the plane like a rag doll.

The red and white coloring gives the Spinosaurus almost a tribal look to it.

Hey guys,

Re-watching Jurassic Park recently, I realized the Hindi voices sound completely different from what played on cassette tapes/VCDs and early cable back in the day.

Turns out all official OTT platforms now stream the 2006 TV re-dub. The original 1994 theatrical Hindi dub (which was the very first Hollywood blockbuster dubbed in Hindi in India) seems to have become lost media on official channels.

Is there any collector, archivist, or cinephile here who has access to an old VHS/VCD rip, an audio sync file, or a link to the original 1994 track? Would mean a lot!

Our cowboy hat wearing hero springs into action. He sparks a road flare and exits the car with a booming, "HEY!"

Ballpoint pen, colored pencil and a touch of sharpie on a 3x5" post-it note. Thanks for looking.

As in, non-JP media. I have been writing something along those lines, but I'm left wondering if there are any other "dinosaur park on an island" stories unrelated to it.

It is a really nice concept, though I haven't seen it replicated.

So, a common gripe I and many people have with this movie's plot is that it's a cliche plotline straight from a video game (Hell, it's literally the plot of a childrens PC game they made for JP3).

The thing is, I absolutely wouldn't have minded that kind of plotline on its own. Jurassic Park/World has always been an adventure movie. What I find harder to forgive is David Koepp being utterly lazy and uncreative about it. He admitted that the whole reason we had this plot point of dinosaurs back on islands again and dying off on the mainland is because he genuinely couldn't think of a plot to make use of that.

That's a bullshit excuse and incredibly lazy. I know I'm beating a bit of a dead horse, but this horse deserves the beating.
